Sector wise Rolls update Sector wise OI – Price chg & Rolls compared to previous month: `
Sector specific observation: ¾
Auto: MARUTI added shorts in Dec‐11. Roll spread of the same slipped into discount pointing towards pressure of a short roller. The stock is likely to face strong resistance at 1020 – 1050 levels. Roll spread has improved in TTMT since Nov‐11 series (20 ‐30 bps premium from discount) and OI has also reduced suggesting exit of short positions. The stock has a strong support at 160 levels. Profit taking was seen in HEROMOTOCO.
¾
Banking/Finance: In Banks, Shorts were rolled over to Jan‐12. Aggressive short rolls were seen in SBIN, AXISBANK, BOB, BOI, KOTAKBANK, PNB, YESBANK. Especially in SBIN, R/o spread continued to trade at a discount (more than 100 bps discount) suggesting aggression of directional short. Positional shorts are getting rolled in SBIN indicating a negative bias. Roll spread of AXISBANK slipped into discount from a premium which is also a positional short counter. Major shorts were added in IDFC which got rolled over to Jan‐12 series. The stock has broken its major support of 100 which is likely to act as a major resistance in coming days. We have a negative view on the stock. IFCI and PFC have seen poor long rolls which suggest expiration of longs. Overall View on Banking & Finance is negative. In Banking, it is observed that shorts are getting rolled since last couple of months. Inspite of being heavy OI in stocks like AXISBANK, BOI, BOB, YESBANK, SBIN, PNB, ALBK, shorts are rolling over at high cost signifying aggression of shorts.
